Mama Fat Anthony

Fat Anthony was my best friend when I was twelve years old. We grew up in the projects together. Mama Fat Anthony believed that a good whupping was good for the child's soul. Every once in a while, Mama Fat Anthony would smack Fat Anthony upside his head for no good reason and I would ask Fat Anthony why Mama Fat Anthony did that and he replied without batting an eye "she says it's an advance for something I'm about to do."
